Since the 1920s, vacationers have penciled in Atlantic Beach for weekend getaways and summer trips.

Wherever you go, you can see magnificent churches and squares, parade streets and fortifications that attract visitors from all over the world. All this on several islands in an archipelago that Unesco has designated as one of seven biosphere reserves in Sweden.
